Violin Reactions

A 13 track soundtracks album (34m 54s) — released June 21st 2019 on The Roundtable

Armando Sciascia – by day, notable composer for Italian erotic and exotic cinema – by night, experimentalist and nocturnal avant-gardener. Lovingly crafted in his hand-built Vedette studio, Sciascia's "lust for experimental research" has never been mre evident than on these precious, never before commercially released 1974 Library recordings. "Violin Reactions" is a violently unique work, studiously constructed out of multi-tracked strings, ominous VCS3 drones and the drum breaks of Tullio De Piscopo. Part futurist broadcast, part Middle-Eastern short-wave transmission, anchored by De Piscopo's breakbeats and calisthenic percussion – strangely melodic and at times hauntingly otherworldly.
